008 - Breath of Freedom with Katie

Join us for this episode where Ronit and McKenna speak with sometimes-editor, sometimes-massage therapist, and always-poet Katie Jamieson as she recounts her story of growing up and following the prescribed life path only to find herself deeply depressed and disconnected. She vulnerably shares about her marriage, the life-changing moment that led to her divorce, and how she has learned to reconnect with and love herself in the years since then through reading, therapy, travel, dance, community, massage, and poetry.
